Hypericum (St. John's Wort) – Nature's Colorful Beads
At KvětinyExpres.cz, Hypericum is the "jewelry" of the floral world. While most plants are prized for their blooms, Hypericum is unique because we focus on its vibrant, firm berries. These colorful beads bring texture, contrast, and a rustic charm to any arrangement, acting as a perfect focal point for modern design.
Interesting Facts to Know:
-
Beyond the Herb: While St. John’s Wort is famous as a medicinal herb, florist varieties are bred specifically for the size and glossiness of their berries.
-
Visual Contrast: The waxy texture of the berries provides a stunning aesthetic clash when paired with softer petals like roses or peonies.
-
Symbolism: It symbolizes protection and cheerfulness. It’s the perfect botanical to send a message of resilience and joy.
Florist Andrea's Tip (Natural Style Expert): "Hypericum is my go-to element for adding depth. Its berries are essential for our autumn bouquets and popular arrangements like the Harmony Bouquet. A pro secret: the berries last much longer than the leaves. If you notice the foliage drooping, simply strip the leaves off—the berried stems will stay pristine for up to 21 days in fresh water."
